In the 25 years I've been buying and riding sleds I've seen it change wildly. Up till 2003 most of my group was on cats. We had a very good dealer. He sold it and the next guy wasn't as good. Then it switched to skidoo after the rev came out. Then back to Polaris when they changed there chassis to the rider forward design. Then cat had a short go at it again in 2010-2011. Back to Polaris for a bit then back to Doo with the XM and Gen 4 chassis. That's what I've seen in my area and with the people we ride with.

I also switched from Polaris to Ski-doo when the REV came out. Then when I purchased my first mountain sled it was teh Polaris IQ.

I'm from Canada. Live in Saskatchewan. SA on that chart.
I'm totaly shocked that we only have 15,202 registered snowmibles here.
I looked it up and that number seems correct.
No wonder our dealers are struggling!!!
It snows in my area every November and stays till end of March or beginning of April. I've rode as late as the third week of April here. We can have up to 5 months of riding here.

Problem in Saskatchewan is people don’t register their sleds it makes me sick to see people that don’t realize a large portion of their plates goes back to SSA!! If you can’t be bothered to buy plates you shouldn’t be riding your sled!

I agree.

the numbers are interesting but there's a few on here I've read their comments about highest selling sleds must be the best based on the numbers. these people usually drive fords. its all fun n games till that check engine light comes on...

 

[snowracer21]

Check the annual reports for each manufacturer (Investor Relations), this should detail a lot of sales information...however, may not get specific on individual model sales.
